About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Dose Ranging Study to Assess the Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of an Oral Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonist (Eltrombopag) Administered to Subjects Receiving Adriamycin and Ifosfamide (AI) Regimen

The study will evaluate the safety and tolerability, optimal biologic dose, and pharmacokinetics of eltrombopag for patients with advanced sarcoma who have a low platelet count and are receiving ADRIAMYCIN and ifosfamide (AI) chemotherapy.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • eltrombopagDrug

    Dosing of sarcoma subjects with eltrombopag after treatment with Adriamycin and Ifosfamide.

Study groups in NCT00358540
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group BExperimentalGroup B is a dose escalation phase designed to determine the optimal biological dose of eltrombopag in subjects with sarcoma who received chemotherapy treatment with Adriamycin and Ifosfamide
Receives: Drug: eltrombopag
Group AExperimentalGroup A will be used for further exploration of the optimal biological dose (as initially established by completion of Group B), by using 2 different dosing schedules of eltrombopag.
Receives: Drug: eltrombopag

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety and tolerability endpoints will consist of the evaluation of adverse events (AE), and changes from baseline in vital signs and clinical laboratory parameters

    Measured: Approximately 42 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. OBD will be determined by evaluating platelet count time course data, platelet nadirs, degree and duration of thrombocytopenia, and platelet count recovery from nadir

    Measured: Approximately 18 weeks

  2. Eltrombopag AUC(0-t)

    Measured: Approximately 4 weeks

  3. Doxorubicin and doxorubicinol PK

    Measured: Approximately 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing eltrombopag in people with Thrombocytopaenia, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 7 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and tolerability endpoints will consist of the evaluation of adverse events (AE), and changes from baseline in vital signs and clinical laboratory parameters (time frame: Approximately 42 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00358540, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Nov 2017.
